The Automotive Technology Management degree is specifically designed for students who want to combine their automotive skills with business courses in order to work in and/or manage a small repair business. It will also transfer smoothly to Northwood University in order to complete a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in Automotive Marketing & Management or in Automotive Aftermarket Management–degrees which provide outstanding employment opportunities in automotive supply chain management, aftermarket field sales management, aftermarket manufacturing management, or automotive wholesale/retail management. Students who wish to meet MTA transfer guidelines should plan to complete an additional science course from a second discipline.
